Something happened twice during the first week of July to show me, and us, that God is VERY active in our lives. Aiden and I had to take some things to the church for the upcoming picnic, and since there was no one around, I let him play on the...
Greetings and salutations, people of Zion! It’s been a while since I’ve had a chance to write a Midweek Musing, but I’ve been enjoying hearing from some different voices over the past few weeks. I am so grateful to have a community that enjoys going deep and sharing their thoughts....
Hello Zion Friends. It seems like a long while since we have been face to face. It will be interesting to see how everyone has journeyed through these last several months. What have we learned? What has God spoken to us? What did we learn about ourselves and our relationships? Life...
Our Midweek Musings message comes this week from Sandy Kissinger, who moved a few months ago to northwestern PA near some family. Sandy often writes email replies in appreciation for the sermons and musings she hears and reads. Below are Sandy’s own “musings” in two of those email responses, sent in May, which I am...

Hello, dear friends of Zion! I hope this finds you well. Scott and I have been missing our beloved congregation and the fellowship that would normally happen in person on a weekly basis. Isn’t it interesting how small things that we were used to experiencing regularly suddenly feel like the...
Greetings and salutations Zion Family! I hope you all enjoyed last week’s musing by Mike Shirley as much as I did. I can identify with Mike’s struggle to try to use words or song to communicate those deep stirrings that God has created in our lives. It’s a frustrating process. Midweek Musing To be honest, I...
